How to Present the Gospel to a Muslim: The Soul Winners Hand Book Volume One

By Adjei Ishmael Okang

Many Christians are not prepared to preach to others about Christ. The seeming unpreparedness has an underlying tone of fear to reach out to unbelievers. But we have been commanded to make all men his disciples, and this we must do. The testimony of the Quran about the Bible confirms that in Muhammad’s time, Christians and Jews coexisted in Arabia.
